Here we have a Pre-Loved N&C Horizon series kit originally handled by us back in 2022. This is one of the last Nick and Jay built kits we received and comes in an incredible finish and in some great sizes too! The condition of this kit is immaculate, the kit was never gigged and kept in one place throughout the time with its original owner.
Over the years we've had some incredible Horizon sets from N&C. For this one we wanted to do something different with the sizes. The toms are 10 x 8, 12 x 8 & 14 x 8 with the mahogany interior shells, there is plenty of warmth and a great intonation between each drum, the benefit of everything being kept 8" deep is the ability to keep the set compact in terms of set up height, often 14" toms are too deep to be used over the bass drum. To round the kit out we spec'd a 16 x 16 floor tom and a 22 x 18 bass drum which in our opinion is the optimum size for a Horizon bass drum. All three toms benefit from the Cool Mount brackets, the floor tom has Pearl LB30 Brackets with Air Ride feet, the badges are the Black over Silver Horizon series, the kit is fitted with Evans throughout.
About the Horizon Series
The Horizon was originally introduced in the 80's and the company dropped it out of the range in the mid 90's. The kits have always maintained a legendary status because of their Maple/Mahogany hybrid shell, remember in the 80's this was new territory. The shells are constructed horizontally which helps them to resonate more uniformly like the N&C steam bent shells. The inner mahogany offered throughout all the sizes adds a darker tone to the drums, these drums sound great live and in the studio.
